These spring rolls are native to Vietnam.  These delicious rice paper bundles full of shrimp, mint, lettuce, and rice noodles embody Vietnamese cuisine- full of contrasts. They are soft and crunchy, colorful yet plain, delicate and satisfying.  Make an assembly line and these spring rolls can be made in a flash.  Serve them with peanut sauce.
